  Were to begin?

  As reported back in June 2023, the kitchen cupboard under the sink absolutely stank and the smell permeated through the house unless you kept the lounge door closed all the time. We had to leave both outside door in the kitchen area open to actually go into the kitchen to do anything. There were cobwebs on top of the kitchen units (which we removed), but the actual unit tops are filthy dirty with grease and grim. The oven is filthy and can not be used in that condition. The shower was black with mould all along the door bottom runners and in the corners and again had to be cleaned thoroughly before use. To the main bedroom, there is bedding stored in the clothes hanging area. Whether this was clean or dirty is anybodies guess. As for the cleaning equipment stored in the utility/cloakroom, well the vacuum cleaner looked like it had never been empted, so not really useable. The garden table and chairs are so rusty you would stain your clothing if you sat down and used them, so were useless. The internet was practically useless as connection was intermittent and for the most part not connected. We took our first day and and a half giving the house a clean, but still could not get rid of the smell/stench in the kitchen cupboard under the sink Its a shame as the house could be very nice if it was thoroughly cleaned and maintained. It was in a nice area with shops and eating places nearby.

  A lovely lodge.

  Well equipped with all that you need on a very quiet site. The power shower is incredible and the bed so comfy you dont want to get out of it!!! The owners left an emergency pack for the dog and cake to welcome us which were both a really nice touch. You can walk to the nearest beach which is about 0.8mile away. The beach is dog friendly and there is a good pub down there too (also dog friendly) a little bit further down the road is Amroth where the New Inn does amazing food and is again dog friendly. The lodge was in an ideal situation to explore Pembrokeshire. Whether you want castles or beaches or adventure parks, all are within at most an hour away. We were really amazed at how dog friendly Pembrokeshire is with the majority of beaches being dog friendly all year round. Also worth a visit are The National Botanic Gardens and the Blue Lagoon. The best beach we found for excellent facilities was Coppet Hall Beach, very small but the cafe and toilets there were brilliant. If you want shops, a short walk away is Saundersfoot . All in all a lovely place to stay and the lodge as a base was superb.

  Thank you so much for letting us stay in your property.

  We have had a fantastic holiday. The cottage is in a great location, near to our points of interest; Nevern and Fishguard. It is a 15 minute walk to the beach and has a few local shops and pubs (but most don't serve alcohol until 4pm). The facilities were good, plenty of pans, cups, cutlery, dishwasher, washing machine, freezer, etc. But the fridge didn't seem cold enough, even when turned up all the way. So unfortunately our meat turned bad and needed to be thrown in the bin. Also the scissors were broken and the knifes were blunt, which was abit of an inconvenience when cooking. Thank you for the welcome back. The local walks, recipes and Welsh language was a nice touch. It was great to have a contact book of health care facilities, vets, etc for if we needed them. The only negative really is that the Internet is really slow. Most of the time we struggled to use it. Because of this, the property could really do with a smart TV with access to more TV channels or a Netflix account. As we were quite bored in the evenings and wanted to relax in the property.

  Great location for village and pubs although as mentioned before, on a very busy junction.

  This was Sept so should imagine at the height of season, parking would be very difficult for the less confident, as have to reverse onto drive. House is compact but everything we needed in modern kitchen, lounge, double and single bedroom. Single sleeps two children as one bed is a trundle, but that is stated clearly on description. As previously stated, seating only for three in lounge, ok for us as a couple but for a family of four would be difficult. Generally clean but quite a few cobwebs. Probably the first property we have stayed in (and there have been a few) where there has been no welcoming pack, not even a bottle of milk and very sparse on soap, washing up liquid etc even in current times. Beautiful beach is a two mile drive away, passing the estuary on the way. Parking not a problem, stunning views and very dog friendly. Two or three good pubs a few minutes walk away. Definitely recommend The Castle for its food and friendly staff. Overall a very nice stay and would recommend this place for its location alone

  We had a great week at the Hideaway.

  There were just a few things that could have made the holiday a little easier. The kitchen was adequate. Having stayed in a number if lodges it was surprising to find a small fridge and not a fridge/freezer. The small ice box at the top of the fridge was iced up and the little door would not close properly. There was a lack of baking trays in the lodge which made cooking challenging. There was a dishwasher but we didn't use if as there wasn't enough crockery for a full day's use. There was also a smell of dog urine in the small entrance hall, this was disguised by a very strong smelling air freshener when we arrived but became apparent after a day or 2. The furniture in the lounge was comfortable but a little dated, there was a very small arm chair that was low to the ground which once my father sat in (he is 87) it took two of use to get him out. All in all, the lodge just needs a bit of a make over and freshen up to bring it in line with the modern well equipped lodges that we are used to staying in.
